Celebrating Change-Makers!

By Jenna Andrews, Social Work Student on placement with NS GovLab

In this time of multiple pandemics — COVID-19, climate change and systemic racism, we have chosen to focus our Seniors week work on celebrating some amazing older African Nova Scotian and Indigenous Change-Makers! Change happens in many ways and these Change-Makers demonstrate all the ways they are making a difference in people’s live, in community, in Nova Scotia and in the world. Thank you for everything you are doing!

Please join us in celebrating these local Change-Makers:
